NEW GOAL: Learn one new cover band song per week.
In progress, but I didn't even listen to my YouTube playlist yesterday!  Listening now.
Launch one new Potbelly song per week.
 Goal met. I didn't actually sing it yet, but I played through the tab and figured out chords for "Smells Like Teen Spirit." It's been in my folder forever, but the chords weren't there, so I had to figure them out.  It's going to be pretty sweet as an acoustic cover.
Write one new original song per month.
Goal met: "Longing" [13+]
Work on music instruction books for fifteen minutes per day.
Fail.
Post at WordPress at least once per week.
Pending. I guess I should do this today. Working day shift and really tired...  But I'll get it.
Write one Textbroker article per week.
Goal met. I wrote another ten articles yesterday.
Submit one short story/article per month.
Pending, unless you count all my Textbroker articles. I received an awesome rejection on my "The Butterfly Stone" sub:
Thanks very much for sending this to _Beneath Ceaseless Skies_. Unfortunately, it's not quite right for us. Although the prose in places felt a bit slow to me, as though it were describing more of the details of sequences of movements or actions than I wanted, I really liked the narrator's attitude that this assassination would be easy. But as the story moved through to the climax, I didn't feel that emotional arc deepen and reach a climax of its own, as I had been hoping it might. I wondered what the narrator felt about assassinating a noble of her choice just for fun. I wondered what she felt about having to kill the servant boy bringing the brandy. I wondered more about the relationship she had had with her mentor whom she had taken the stone from. I was hoping she might reach some deeper conclusion than only being tired of living. I also found the epilogue scene unnecessary because it was more about the Stone itself than about her.
I appreciate your interest in our magazine. Please feel free to submit again.
